Search Query that shows articles based on the current logged in users Office location

Hi,
I've set up a "news" channel that shows articles targeted to the current user. Basicly this on done by queryting the property of the custom "Office Location" termset.
My setup is something like the following in my term store:
The setup works perfect now. countries are not taggable so at the moment the user needs to choose City 1.. City 2 etc. for their articles which works fine since sometimes articles are also only targeted to cities and not countries.
Anyways now we have got 2 users in City 4. Here it makes no sense that articles should be targeted City 3 and City 4 in order to show articles to entire Country 2. Basicle what I want here is that if an article is targeted with City 3 it should also be shown
to City 4 users.
How is this archived best? I have tried to make the Countries available for tagging as well, however it not show anything since the user property of course still is City 3 or City 4.
Thanks for your time

Hi,
You can not get hold of the parent in your scenario. You want the parent of the tagged term in the user profile, and there is no built-in mechanism in search to get this. So as I mentioned you have to use JSOM to get the parent term, and then use that in
your owstaxIdOfficex0020Location:term query.
owstaxIdOfficex0020Location:{User.SPS-Location.IDWithChildren}
would be a valid query, except it won't help you much :)

  • My Tasks View in my custom task list fails to display the tasks assigned to me (that is the currently logged in user)

    Hi
    I am new to sharepoint 2010.
    I created a custom task list, where I  have many tasks assigned to users (I had tasks assigned to me as well). I created a view as "My tasks "and having a filter as Assigned To is equal to [Me]. When I do that my view fails to show the
    tasks assigned to me. This happens same with the Sharepoints 'My Tasks' view as well. I tested by creating some test tasks under my name and when I selected 'My Tasks' view no tasks are getting displayed.
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Gokulkumar.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to display the tasks assigned the current logged in user.
    In my environment, if I used the System Account, My Task view didn’t display any tasks.
    However , if I used other users except the System Account, My Task view could display current user tasks correctly.
    I recommend to use other accounts except System Account to log in site. Then everything will work well.
    Thank you for your understanding.

  • Get the current Logged on User on Mobile Client

    Hi
    I have to display the current logged in User of the Mobile client in my application. I think I have to use the User and UserManager API for that. But the thing is I am not able to instantiate the class to use the methods in it.I think I have to create a session object for using these classes, but in Session API I can see that I will have to create a new session and I want to use the current session.
    Please tell me how to use these APIs and get the instance of User or UserManager.
    Regards,
    Priya

    Hi Priya,
    You can try with:
    User user = UserManager.getInstance().getCurrentUser();
    The User interface has methods to get relevant information (for ie. getName() or getFirstName()), take a look on the [javadocs|http://help.sap.com/javadocs/nwmobile/SP3/laptops/com/sap/ip/me/api/user/User.html]

  • Get username and password of the currently logged-in user in CRM and pass it to the plugin

    Hi,
    I am integrating CRM Online and SharePoint Online. Right now I am using Office365 trial version for both. Hence, the same username and password works for both.
    I want to create sub-site in SharePoint on create of an entity record. Currently, I am passing the admin credentials. But, I want to pass the credentials of the currently logged-in user in CRM to the plugin which is getting executed on create of account entity.
    So that I can then create sub-site in SharePoint using the current user credentials instead of admin credentials.
    Is there way to achieve this?

    Hello,
    You would not be able to get login/password of currently logged in user. I believe usage of admin credentials is the best way to achieve your goal.

  • Custom Search Results web part: show only sites wherein the current user has access

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a custom Search Box and Search Results web part in one of my web application. The search result should show only sites wherein the current user only has an access. Do you have an idea how to implement this? Thanks. :)
    Regards,
    Napster

    Hi Napster,
    From my experience, we can only search the result which we have view permission at least.
    Please provide more information about your requirement if there is misunderstanding.

  • Need query to determine current logged in user

    Because I see no way in sccm 2012 to determine if someone is currently logged into a domain joined computer.  Does anyone have a query or know of a way to get the current logged in user of a computer? I am surprised that SCCM does not show that information
    when looking at the particular device.  I did find a powershell query that I use that tells me the last logged in user but it gives me no indication if the user is currently logged in or if it was a week ago.
    Thank you.

    This PowerShell script queries a remote machine to obtain the current logged on user.  It's available on the Repository (https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/d46b1f3b-36a4-4a56-951b-e37815a2df0c).
